How Many States Have You Cached In?

Well, my plans have changed considerably since I started this thread. Here's my current map:

August 3, 2005

5 - States and 1 - Country (India)

August 3, 2005

For canada just Ontario and Quebec

For USA 18 States + DC

Hopefully I will add two more states before the years out and the rest of new england next spring. Maybe even the rest east of the Mississippi next summer.. Good to dream. ;-)

Six states, no map.

Maryland

Virginia

West Virginia

Pennsylvania

Texas

Florida

We can now add New Jersey to my list.

August 3, 2005

Looks like 12 states (2 high points).

Not bad if you consider I've got a total of 61 caches......

Michigan - Lower Pennisula

Ohio

Indiana

Illinois

August 3, 2005

I guess I don't like Kentucky???

Hope to complete the east of the Mississippi sweep this year since we have a New England trip planned.

Hmmm.........

Thought I'd give this topic a bump. Here's the map I use on my profile page. Orange states are ones I've visited, but not cached. Eight to go!

yellowish states are ones I first cached in 2002, green are '03, turquoise are '04, and blue are ones I've first cached this year.

August 20, 2005

No need for a map for me... California only so far. But I just started and haven't even left the state since I started. I'll be adding Utah to the list next week, though!

August 20, 2005

3...I think.

8.4k · August 20, 2005

13 since May 26 of this year. I cached coast to coast in 2 trips.

CA, NV, AZ, NM, CO, KS, OK, TX, LA, MS, AL, FL, GA.

August 21, 2005

9 states in the US (SC,NC,VA,MD,DE,PA,NY,IL,NJ) and 5 European countries (UK,DE,BE,CZ,AU)...

August 21, 2005

Just 4 so far, SC, NC, MD and FL.

November 23, 2005

Ok 40 states and just 10 to go.

November 23, 2005

3 + Italy.

November 23, 2005

Got to get in on this mapping action.

Yikes!

Time for a SE trip!

November 23, 2005

Only 3 and soon some in the Middle East. Lucky me.

What I find more important than the numbers is that each state I have cached in I received a very warm welcome. For the two "out of state" states, I received very nice "welcome to our area" notes from cache owners.

So, I have found consistancy in geocaching as far as geocachers being friendly folks goes. I find this very interesting to note.

November 23, 2005

Not too bad for less than 100 finds (75?). I think that's 16 states +DC

I don't like airplanes, and airplanes don't like me. So I don't fly.

I've cached in nine states and D of C. New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, Delaware, Maryland and West Virginia. There are enough caches in those states to keep me going for quite a while, thank you. Maybe, I'll work on Connecticut and Maine next year.

November 24, 2005

In order, they are: New Jersey (my home state), Delaware, Texas, Pennsylvania, Virginia, District of Columbia and Maryland. Like Harry said, Jersey alone has enough caches to keep someone quite busy. Heck, Wharton State Forest by itself is enough to keep anyone occupied for a long time!

We just started caching about 2 months ago, but hit 4 states so far this summer. But here's my question... where do I paste the html code on my profile page to get the map to show up? I'm usually a little swifter than this, but the world66 site says that to put the map I created on my page I have to paste the html code. I look at the profile page and don't see anywhere to paste it. Help!

July 26, 2006

Last year i did all 50:

so that there is no red vs blue bs, I painted the states redwhitenblue;

So far, 31.

My map has changed a little bit since that post. It is 46 now. This map is the one I update. It might change since it is linked off of my personal site. All I have to do is upload a new version.

Took a trip to Maine to visit my sister, Circles. Added three states to my list: Connecticut, Rhode Island and Maine. (Okay, so that was the only reason we stopped off in Rhode Island. :laughing: ) So make that 12 states, plus the D of C. Enjoyed Goddard Memorial State Park in Rhode Island, and Odiorne State Park in New Hampshire. And enjoyed the rest stop caches on the Mass Pike.

Now, who's going to contriubte for the dolphin's First Class Plane Ticket to Seattle for next year???

July 27, 2006

luckily I just got back from a trip and it's still fresh in my mind so I can remember, I have cached in: Michigan, Indiana, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, West Virginia and The District of Columbia

I visited plenty of other states before I started caching and on this most recent trip passed through 2 others on the way that I did not cache in. I don't keep a map because I honestly don't care what states others have cached in and if someone is really that nosy about where I've been they can just look at my finds list.

Ooh, 48 states. Congrats! Just the two hard ones to go. Sounds like you're going to have to take the Mrs. on a vacation soon. :unsure:

how do we add the map to the profile page? can someone just answer this question already?!

Actually reading through past notes it appears you have already been given your answer.

Let me try again.

Well, you don't have any logged caches so I couldn't build one around your finds.

goto http://douweosinga.com/projects/visitedstates

Select the states you want included. Click 'GO'

Where it says Put this map on your website/blog by pasting the following html code: you'll see something like this

<a href="http://douweosinga.com/projects/visitedstates">create your own visited states map</a>

Select all that information and copy it.

Go to your profile page and select 'Edit My Profile'

Scroll down near the bottom and make sure that the "My profile details are written in HTML format" is checked.

paste the info into a section like 'Latest News'

oh yes, you'll need to enter your password and then select 'Update account'

Ironically, our first 2 caches were far from home when we were visiting relatives in North Carolina. After that all of them were in our home state of New York until recently (10-11 months later) when we finally hit some in Pennsylvania and hit a couple in nearby New Jersey and Connecticut.

August 5, 2006

Took a trip to FL last month and took the long way home to Louisville, just to add Alabama, Mississippi and Arkansa.

August 5, 2006

I added IDAHO, MINNESOTA, and INDIANA last month.

Well, mine has changed a little since my first post in this thread. Arizona stands out as being new from the old map. It's hard to see, but I've also filled in the little white dot that was on the east coast aka Washington DC.

August 6, 2006

Some of those cache maps are brutal for use color-blind people.

It makes eating Jelly Bellies substantially harder as well.

One. Impressive huh? :laughing:

That will change next month when I go on vacation though. Florida Geocachers here I come!

August 8, 2006

Arkansas

Oklahoma

Missouri

Tennessee

Mississippi

August 8, 2006

Just 5 states. Just need the go for a geocaching trip in Vermont to complete New England. I plan on going down to Florida next spring too.
